his parents to Cresco, Iowa, ID 1870,
where in 1881 he joined hands and

There il more Catarrh in this sec
ton Of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years wis supposed to be incura
bic. For great many years Doctors
pronounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
nent pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be con-
stitntional disease. and therefore
requires q constitutional treatment,
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
T. j. Cheney s. Co, Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure now in

CATARRH CURE.
The Iowa plain dealer. [volume] (New Oregon, Howard County, Iowa) 1867-1895, 1887-11-10

Army surgeons during the late
war found chronic diarrh9a one OF
the most obstinate diseases they
had to treat. Thousands OF cases
proved fatal, and many soldiers SUI
fering with the disease Wee pro-
nounced 'ncnrable, and discharged
from the service. Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Rene
Jy was not known at that time. 1t
has proved to be one OF the grand.
est discoveries ever made IN the
history OF medical practice. It has
been used hill over the west for
years, and many chronic cases cured
after being treated by the most
eminent physicians, and at epor.
nous expense. It is pleasant and
safe, and never fails. Sold by Low.

purities in the blood, local appiica-

Tie co,nlnon-sense method Of treat

Motives ars as Numerous as Men.

There is the political Motive which
decries tax on whiskey, for personal
or party glory the Political Economy
Motive that believes an unnecessary
tax is an unjust one the Guzzler's mo-
tive,-bigger barrels, higher jugs and
free whiskey. Miss Willard, repre-
sentative of the Woman,s Christian
Temperance Union, expresses the reli-
gious motive in the following rather
lurid way:
81 hope we shall distinctly declare
ourselves in favor of removing the in
ternal revenue tax from all intoxicat-
ing liquors. 1t is convenant with
hell and a compact with damnation.
To day it stands as the strongest bul
wark between the liquor traffic and
annihilation. We want no monopo-
lies in sin-least of all that the nation
al Government should be the largest
stockholder, getting ninety cents on
every gallon of whiskey and ninety
three cents in round numbers on eve
ry keg of beer. The amount of tax
is abont equal to the animal surplus
in the United States Treasury. Let
both be wiped out together. I hope
this may be one of our campaign bat
tie cries: Down with the tax that ties
the nation tight to the vampire that
is sucking out its blood"

North Carolina Governors.

North Carolina had six Governors
under the Crown. 1t has had twenty
seven under the Constitution, begin
ming with Richard Caswell in 1776.
who was elected by our General As
sembly. Ofthese Caswell, Alexander,
Martin and benjamin Williams were
elected for two terms. The Constitu-
ton OF 1885 transferred the election of
Governor from the Legislature to the
people, and since that time we have
had fifteen, who were regularly elect
ed by the popular vote, and FIVE who
were ex-oficio Governors, and one
Provisional Governor, appointed by
the President Governor Vance is
the only one Of the forty-two, regular
ly elected by the Assembly and peo-
pie, who was elected for three terms.
But one, Richard Dobbs Spaight, Sr.,
had son to attain to this distinguish
ed position. Five Of these counties,
Craven, Guilford, Halifax, Warren
and Buncombe, furnished occupants
for the Governors chair, each three
terms, and eight counties, Lenoir,
Chowan, New Hanover, Moore, Meek
lenburg, Orange, Wake and Rock
ingham, for two terms each.
North Carolina has furnished to
other States fifteen Governors, three
Presidents, two Vice Presidents, four
teen United States Senators and forty
one members Of the lower House of
Congress. John K. Steele, who be-
came Governor of New Hampshire in
1874, was born in Salisbury in 1892,
and it is said that he was shoemaker,
and when he left his native town he
started on foot, carrying "a bag con
tanning some cobbler's tools. Andrew
Johnston was born in the city of Raj
eigh, and was raised on a tailor's
bench. He went to Tennessee, was
subsequently, member of the Legis-
